Here's a look back at some of our club events and activities over the years.

Havanese Grooming Clinic

August 6, 2023 - Beaverton

One of the many wonderful things about Havanese is their beautiful coat. It can also be the most daunting thing about having a Havanese.

At this Grooming Clinic experienced Havanese owners were on hand to answer questions, share tips and techniques. Topics included brushing, combing, trimming nails. We talked about dental care. We had suggestions for tools and products depending upon your dog’s coat and your needs. Trying to keep your dog’s coat long? Sending your dog to a groomer and not getting the results you hoped for? Want to try doing your own clip? We covered all of this and more.

Meet the Breed

January 20, 2023 - Portland

Several members and their dogs participated in the Meet the Breed presentations at the Rose City Classic. In addition to introducing Havanese to a variety of visitors, the four-legged ambassadors had fun doing some tricks.

Obedience and Rally Class

October 2022 - January 2023

Club member Linda Ruedy organized a class to prepare members for exhibiting their dogs in Obedience and/or Rally. The class combined in-person, Zoom, and emailed resources. Several members and their dogs were ready to successfully exhibit at the January 2023 Specialty!

All Breed Eye Clinic

Co-hosted with Puget Sound Miniature Schnauzer ClubAugust 2, 2020 - Lake Oswego

Veterinary Ophthalmologist Sarah Maxwell examined eyes on 80 dogs. The clinic was especially needed, as shows were shut down due to COVID-19. As a result, dogs came from as far as Seattle, Astoria, and Prineville for exams.
